LESS THAN ZERO: Synopsis | Reviews | Press

-Brandon
-Stefanie

"One of the most disturbing novels I've read in a long time. It possesses an unnerving air of documentary reality."         
                                           -Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

"Ellis takes you down and down into a nothingness called L.A...that puts no value on anything. He is an extraordinary writer."                                                            -L.A. Weekly

"Bret Easton Ellis...is an extremely traditional and very serious American novelist. He is the model of filial piety, counting among his parents Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Nathanael West, and Joan Didion."
                                           -Carolyn See, Washington Post

"Startling and hypnotic...a haunting, evocative portrait of a kind of L.A. life almost too turbulent to believe."
                                                         -Interview

"An updated Catcher in the Rye."
                                                        -Los Angeles Times

"Filled with languid comic terror, Less Than Zero is a startling debut for Bret Ellis, a no wave West Coast La Dolce Vita."
                                                        -Richard Price

"A fascinating read."
                                                        -Detroit Free Press

"This is the novel your mother warned you about. Jim Morrison would be proud."
                                                        -Eve Babitz

"Never has Hollywood's version of success looked so frightening in a piece of contemporary literature."
                                                        -Newsday

"Remarkable. A killer-sexy, sassy, and sad...It's a teenage slice-of-death novel, no holds barred. The feel of it hits where it hurts."
                                                        -Village Voice

"Catcher in the Rye for the MTV generation."
                                                        -USA Today
